Less than a third the way done with my pagoda Build.
Figured i would show it off.

[fishingrat7]

It looks nice can't wait to see it finished

[zerokiriyu]

your Gonna be waiting a bit. it takes a while to collect all the resources im gonna need.

[zerokiriyu]

This is what the roofs will look like. Look at the corners!

[Zito]

That's awesome! Where did you get the idea?

[zerokiriyu]

It started out is everyone was poking fun at how my Japanese heritage excites me
So I started looking around YouTube for ideas and saw someone build a nice pagoda so I decided to try to make one myself.

[Zito]

I can't wait to see it when you are done, it looks amazing already!

[Devo_008]

I feel slightly Asian inside just looking at these photos

Great job Zero!

[zerokiriyu]

Thanks guys, but do to 1.6 lagg issues I won't be able to play much but ill work on it best I can.

[zerokiriyu]

Second Floor complete along with the roof (need 28 emeralds to add detail but done for the most part).
All that is left is to add detail to the walls, and ill FINALLY be about a 3rd of the way done with the full build!

[zerokiriyu]

Thanks guys, but do to 1.6 lagg issues I won't be able to play much but ill work on it best I can.

Scratch that. I finally found a 1.6.2 optifine so i can continue.

[zerokiriyu]

Detail coming out really well.

[Zito]

That looks really nice Zero! I especially like the design you have going with the stairs up near the roof, it really gives it that Pagoda look

[zerokiriyu]

Thanks zito!

[zerokiriyu]

Finally done with the detail. I'm now officially 1/3 done with the build. Yes!




With the stairs there will be a bit more detail, but they are mostly done



I added a little jade look with some emeralds to the roof.



And with this picture you can see most of how the building will look.

[Zito]

Wow! That is looking amazing Zero! I can't wait to see the next set of pics!

[zerokiriyu]

The next set of pics will come as I complete addons to the exterior design.
Thanks for the complaments.

[zerokiriyu]

I added a nice water feature and some bushes to the stairs.



A small bridge and Japanese stone lantern found themselfs on the path.



All in all, I think it is starting to look really well.

[Zito]

Looking great, as always Zero! I love the look of the fountain, with the sugarcane there, it really just is a nice feature.

[zerokiriyu]

What Japanese build can be complete without a Sakura tree?

[Zito]

That looks really good! I have never been good at building trees, and that one really compliments  the theme!

[zerokiriyu]

Thanks Zito! I'm really glad someone is admiring this. for a first major build, i thought it would flop.

[Zito]

I really just like how you are giving updates on it, I enjoy following the building process. It looks good as well

[zerokiriyu]

I really just like how you are giving updates on it, I enjoy following the building process. It looks good as well

I try to, so that people can see more of the hard work that went into it. That way people can appreciate it for all it's worth.

[zerokiriyu]

Nice rock garden for fun.   

[Zito]

That's fanceh

[RTab]

Im really liking this build... Keep it up man!

[zerokiriyu]

Thanks rtab.

[zerokiriyu]

The stairs are finally in!



Now have plenty of storage.



A nice brewing station for the alcemicly gifted. (I have never brewed a potion)



A futon fit for a king.



And with that, my friends. Pagoda Zero is complete!

[Kaz]

Wowzers! Looks awesome, Zero! You did a great job! A++!
What's next on your list of builds?
How about one of those red arch things Japan has? I forget what they're called.

[Zito]

Excellent work Zero! It looks amazing! 10/10 on everything, especially the futon . So what's next?

[zerokiriyu]

Do you mean Shinto gates? If so they have reason behind them. The red is a symbolic for Buddhism. The gate itself is symbolic to expel demons before you walk apon holy grounds. Such as temples or just land people hold dearly.

Sorry, didn't mean to go off. Ill see what I can do.
My next project is actually to add to the pagoda. Ill be building a shrine. Maybe I can put the Shinto gate leading to it.

Thanks everyone!

[Zito]

Sounds pretty awesome! I love it when you bring in the trivia!

[zerokiriyu]

I'll try to keep going with the Japanese builds, but there isn't much I can do cuz of the mine craft realm. I'll will continue at my best.

[Kaz]

I have faith in you, zero!

[Zito]

You could build Tokyo next!

[zerokiriyu]

Oh wow tokyo, ummmm i dont think that is possible without creative. I also prefer the old style more than the modern.

[Zito]

You could build a smaller Japanese style town then, with the old style :p

[zerokiriyu]

I plan too, but it will take some time. the walls would have to be made from nether quartz. but i will work towards it.

[Zito]

Awesome! If I'm ever on at the same time as you, I will help you gather resources if you want.

[zerokiriyu]

That would be awsome Zito! Ill be on most the time on sunday through tuesday.

[Kaz]

I too will supply you some resources since I never play survival on semi-vanilla anymore lol. Make a list of what you need and I'll look through my chests

[zerokiriyu]

I'll need nether quartz, nether brick, and a few others i haven't really thought the whole thing out yet, but think y'all for all the help.

[Zito]

Next time I'm on I will get you some quartz and Nether Brick.

[PieLittlePony]

Seriously awesome, which area did you build in? I'd like to have a look around if that's cool with you

[zerokiriyu]

I built it at my home so you could come see it but there is no warp to it.
